You can only sue for uncompensated for injuries or damage. If everything has been repaired and is or will be paid for by Dish, and there are no personal injuries, there is no basis for a lawsuit. What could have happened but for your quick thinking and decisive action is irrelevant; all that matters is what did in fact occur.
